Installation
Flush piping system prior and after installation of faucet
thoroughly!
Prepare sink faucet
Refer to the dimensional drawing on page 1.
Mount sink faucet, see fig. [1].
1. Fit O-Ring (A).
2. Insert faucet into sink. Feed the connection hoses separately
through the sink.
3. Fit brace (B), if necessary, with washer (C) and connect nut (D)
with tube (E). To do this, insert fitting key (G) into tube (E) and
turn fitting key (G) clockwise to fasten faucet.
(Tube may also have to be turned with an 22mm open ended
wrench.)
Note:
If brace (B) is omitted, deck thickness can be increased by 9/16"
to a total of 2 3/8".
Connect sink faucet, see figs. [1] and [2].
- Cold water connection (marked blue) = right
- Hot water connection (marked red) = left
Avoid cross connection. The cartridge is not reversible.
Connect spray hose (H) and rinse spray (K), see figs. [3] and [4].
1. Feed the spray hose (H) through the spout (J), see fig. [3].
2. Feed the spray hose (H) through the faucet body from above and
fit spout (J) so that it snaps into place, see fig. [4].
3. Connect the rinse spray (K) without using any additional seals to
the spray hose (H).
4. With rinse spray inserted slide on spring (L) onto spray hose (H)
from below.
5. Install the snap coupling (M) on the end of the spray hose (H)
and tighten by hand.
6. Pull the sleeve (M1) of the snap coupling (M) downwards and fit
to the union (N).
To ensure that the rinse spray (K) is correctly seated when
inserted, lug (J1) on the spout must engage in recess on the rinse
spray (K1).
Open cold and hot water supply and check connections for
leakage!
Operation
1. Lever head
Slide lever to right = open (water flow)
Slide lever to left = closed
Slide lever towards front = cold water
Slide lever towards back = hot water
2. Rinse spray
Open faucet. Water will always emerge first from the flow
straightener.
Diverter button:
Switching to spray flow by pushing the diverter button.
Turning off the faucet automatically diverts the water flow from
spray to flow straightener.
Flow rate limiter
This faucet is fitted with a flow rate limiter, permitting an infinitely
variable individual reduction of the flow rate. The highest possible
flow rate is set by the plant before despatch.
The use of flow rate limiters in combination with hydraulic
instantaneous water heaters is not recommended.
To activate see "Replacing the cartridge" point 1 to 3, figs. [5]
and [6].
Maintenance
Inspect and clean all parts, replace as necessary and grease with
special grease.
Shut off cold and hot water supply!
I. Replacing the cartridge, see fig. [5].
1. Remove fixing screw (O) using a 3mm allen wrench.
2. Pull off lever (P).
3. Turn cap (R) through 180° (slot pointing upwards) and pull off the
cap.
4. Remove fixing screw (S) and pull off adjusting lever (T).
5. Remove screws (U) and detach complete cartridge (V).
6. Change the complete cartridge (V).
